Bourne's Ocean Acres Ogunquit Motel

Glad to see that everyone's loving the new office additions of temporary tattoos and chocolates this year! 🐙🍫

Hopefully it brightens your day when you come to see us in the office.

New hanging signs 🎉 Possibly a new main sign in 2025... We'll see.

Our usual view of the fireworks 🎆

We don’t often get to go to the fireworks, but we love hearing your stories the next day! We hope you all had a happy and safe 4th, and we can’t wait to spend the rest of the summer with you! ☀️

We're having a drink flowin', grills goin', corn hole throwin', full house to kick off the first official summer weekend of 2023 🥳 (Pool floatin' not pictured but happening right behind me)

Thank you to our guests and the hard-working, fun-loving staff. We are happy to share our little piece of the world with you ❤️

🇺🇦 🇰🇿 🇲🇳 🇹🇷 🇨🇦 🇺🇸 🏳️‍🌈

We rented our very first room on July 3rd, 1963 to a family of 4 from Ohio. Back then we had only 10 rooms, but it was the start of a great family business. Not much of these buildings remain, but the Bourne’s are still here 60 years later (now with over 40 rooms and 2 pools! 😎).
☀️ Link to book in bio ☀️

☀️ Now open for our 60th season! ☀️
Book today for your summer vacay (rhyme very much intended) 😎

May the Fourth be with you!

We’re all BIG Star Wars fans around here, so we couldn’t pass up our favorite holiday. But be forewarned: we only rent to Rebels (we’re looking at you, Jabba).

It’s always been a family affair at Ocean Acres.

Though the Bourne name isn’t on the sign anymore, we’re still running the show! Pictured below are the original owners, Charles and Alice Bourne with their sons Jonathan (left) and Charlie.

Thanks To Eric Moore for the throwback pic!

We’re having fun with the snow. ❄️

It’s officially Pride Month, but we’re allies all year round, not just in June. Our hotel is located in Ogunquit, one of the most notable gay towns in the world, & our family has lived & run this business here for nearly 60 years. We realize we’re simply allies & don’t walk in fabulous, lgbtqia+ shoes everyday, so we invite any advice on how to keep this community safe & let you folks live your best lives when spending time at our hotel!

…now that we got that out of the way, let’s get down to all the fun, lgbt+ activities we offer round here💃🏼🪩🏳️‍🌈
- Ogunquit beach’s gay club section (about 200 yards left/north of the entrance)
- gay bars complete with drag shows. Our pick is Mainestreet Ogunquit for their shows & large outdoor patio
- tons of shops & restaurants adorned with pride flags
- a rainbow crosswalk in the center of town. Perfect for a photo-op 💁🏼‍♀️
- rainbow, unicorn, & other colorful & laugh-inducing floaties for use in our indoor & outdoor pools
- our expansive property allowing for games & hangs away from the crowds if you wish

What’s your favorite fall flavor? Team 🍎 or 🎃?

This is a salted caramel apple cold brew 🍮🧂☕️ If you’ve seen our previous posts, you know we’re thinking about offering bagel & baked good options at our hotel so you can get to the beach faster 🏖👙🌊 So the addition of flavored cold brew coffee could really round out our guests’ breakfast needs. Let us know how you like your coffee in the comments below, & you might see it on a menu here next year! What are your favorite flavors? Do you like espresso shots, cold foam, steamed milk, etc.?

As born & raised New Englanders, we
love a cold coffee even when the winter temps drop below freezing. If you ask me, seasonally flavored coffee always starts the day off on the right foot. I have such a sweet tooth so it’s hard to pick a favorite flavor, but fall flavors with apple and/or caramel are up there! 🍎🍮🧂
